In "Unseen Eyes" and "An Oath" Tylor reminds everyone about the dark undercurrents of the Salidar camp, Greg is ready for this political plot to become a siege, and Egwene gets a less than forthcoming reaction from the Wise Ones.

In "The Figurehead" and "A Pair of Silverpike", Greg tries to navigate the numerous political currents of Salidar, Tylor highlights the importance of tracking the Forsaken (and remembering that there is one in camp), and Egwene makes her first moves to seize real power.

In "Old Fear, New Fear" and "Pitfalls and Tripwires", the Aiel want to go to war, Tylor wonders how much of Faile's actions are about cultural expectations, and Greg is impressed by Rand's command of politics while also worrying about his sanity.

In "Hill of the Golden Dawn", "Into Cairhien", and "A Broken Crown", Tylor appreciates that we get more time in Perrin's head, Greg wonders about the new Asha'man, and Rand seems to be in his dark side phase, but he still won't kill women.

In "High Chasaline" and "The Butcher's Yard", Greg appreciates seeing Rand's development from Perrin's perspective, Tylor is interested in the new Asha'man who get the spotlight, and Dashiva being chosen at random feels momentous.

In "Lightnings", Greg worries about the stability of the White Tower, Tylor is more impressed by Dumai's Wells the second time around, and Eamon Valda makes his move.

In the traditional end of book wrap-up Greg weighs Lord of Chaos' slow start against its epic finish, Tylor reveals the most ridiculous POV challenge yet, and long-time guest Ben poses a game that pokes fun at Robert Jordan's descriptions of women (and then Greg ruins it).

In "The Sending", "Dumai's Wells" and "The Answer", Tylor is impressed by how all the pieces come together, Greg enjoys our first explosive climax, and Rand seems to lose himself in Lews Therin.
